The Role of Heterogeneity in the Persistence and Prevalence of Sin Nombre Virus in Deer Mice

The American Naturalist, 2008
Many diseases persist at a relatively low prevalence, seemingly close to extinction. For a chronic disease in a homogeneous population, reducing the transmission rate by a fraction proportional to the prevalence would be sufficient to eradicate the disease.

RELATIONSHIP OF ECOLOGICAL VARIABLES TO SIN NOMBRE VIRUS ANTIBODY SEROPREVALENCE IN POPULATIONS OF DEER MICE [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mammalogy, 2000
Abstract Because recent studies have not demonstrated a strong relationship between rodent density and Sin Nombre virus (SNV) seroprevalence, there is speculation that seroprevalence may be related to other factors, including habitat quality and food availability.

Ultrastructural characteristics of Sin Nombre virus, causative agent of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome

Archives of Virology, 1995
A previously unrecognized disease, hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, was described following an outbreak of severe, often lethal, pulmonary illness in the southwestern United States in May-June, 1993. We have now studied the morphologic features of the causative agent, Sin Nomber virus (SNV), by thin section electron microscopy and immunoelectron ...

NATURAL HISTORY OF SIN NOMBRE VIRUS INFECTION IN DEER MICE IN URBAN PARKS IN OREGON

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2010
Sin Nombre virus (SNV), one of at least 45 hantaviruses described worldwide, is hosted by the deer mouse, Peromyscus maniculatus, a common species throughout most of North America. Herein, we describe general life-history characteristics of deer mice and the ways in which these factors relate to the incidence of SNV infections among populations of this

RELATIONSHIPS OF DEER MOUSE MOVEMENT, VEGETATIVE STRUCTURE, AND PREVALENCE OF INFECTION WITH SIN NOMBRE VIRUS

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1999
The effects of vegetative structure on movement of deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) were examined in two distinct vegetation associations, one near Hesperus and the other near Molina in western Colorado (USA) from June-October 1994 to October 1998.

Genetic Relatedness of Deer Mice ( Peromyscus maniculatus ) Infected with Sin Nombre Virus

Vector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2004
The deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) is the primary rodent host of Sin Nombre virus (SNV), the principal etiologic agent of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome in the United States. Many characteristics of SNV infections of deer mice are unknown. To better understand the transmission mechanisms of SNV in deer mice, we conducted mark-recapture sampling and
